Benefit #1: Increases Uptime Through In-place Cleaning
Traditional cleaning methods can require equipment to be disassembled, and relocated to a designated cleaning area. Dry Ice Blasting can be performed on-line without disassembly, and without the need for cool down or drying time, which can result in a cleaning within hours vs days.
Benefit #2: Reductions in Waste Disposal
While traditional cleaning methods can result in hours of additional cleaning of the "secondary waste", consisting of solvents, sand, or other means-the cleaning agent itself becomes a secondary contaminent that needs to be disposed of immediately. Dry Ice Blasting eliminates the "secondary waste" by simply disappearing, eliminating the costs or concerns of more traditional methods.
 Benefit #3: Eco-Friendly Cleaning Solution.
Since the dry ice particles are made through a process of taking Liquid Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and expanding it into a snow like substance, the Dry Ice Pellets simply disappear on contact, adding nothing toxic to the environment. Facilities using Dry Ice Blasting minimize waste volume, by eliminating the creation of "secondary waste" and the need to dispose of harmful toxic chemicals.
Benefit #4: Quicker and More Thorough than Cleaning by Hand
Get a more detailed and quicker clean with CO2 by getting into tight spaced areas inaccessible by hand. While Dry Ice Blasting can eliminate the need of scrubbing with abrasive pads or wire brushes, a reduction of labor hours and down time is achieved, revealing any potential leaks that could cause system failures.
Benefit #5: Safe Around Electrical Components
Dry Ice Blasting cleans thoroughly, leaving equipment dry and in place. It works without the need of harmful chemicals, lubricants, solvents or water for that matter! Because of this, Dry Ice Blasting is an ideal cleaning solution for electrical equipment or other water sensitive applications.
Benefit #6: Reduce or Eliminate Damage to Equipment
Dry Ice Blasting is a non-abrasive and non-corrosive procedure; it won't pit or abrade surfaces like other traditional cleaning methods such as sand, glass beads or walnut shells. Once the Dry Ice Pellets strike the surface to be cleaned, they immediately sublimate, loosening the bond between the contaminant and equipment.
Benefit #7: Disinfects while Inhibits Bacteria and Mold Growth
Dry Ice is a natural, anti-bacterial cleaning method. Because of the extreme temperature of -79º C, the Dry Ice kills bacteria and fungi immediately upon contact. While it cleans, it disinfects without the need of chemicals, toxins, or additional agents.
Benefit #8: A Safer Cleaning Environment
Dry Ice is non-toxic unlike many of the traditional cleaning solvents used in the cleaning industry. Exposure to hazardous materials and agents is eliminated, reducing health risks to employees and operators. A cleaner and safer work environment is created.
Benefit #9: Space Saving - No Need for a Dedicated Cleaning Area
Dry Ice Blasting units are portable, so they can go to where the equipment to be cleaned is located. The need for disassembly, transporting, and reassembly is eliminated.
Benefit #10: Dry Ice Blasting Pays for Itself
The Dry Ice Blasting process eliminates so many of the negative elements associated with cleaning that it literally pays for itself! Dry Ice Blasting eliminates the need for:
- disassembly and relocation
- solvents
- hand scrubbing
- equipment damage
- drying time
- cool down time
